MacBook Pro 2017 display flickering from black to normal

Hi all, my MacBook Pro 2017 has suddenly started flickering from normal to a total black screen. This can happen with a varied frequency. I have run diagnostics and there is no hardware issue flagged. This does not happen when the laptop is run in safe mode. I have done a factory reset and installed OS again. It still keeps happening. Not sure where to go from here. Is this a known issue?

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.2

You should get the MacBook Pro diagnosed by visiting an Authorized Apple Service Provider next to your place.

Since starting the Mac in safe mode reduces the graphic mode, there could be problem with your graphic card.
